toeboards

Platform safety rails

Toeboards are low barriers at the edge of elevated platforms, scaffolding, or open floor areas, designed to prevent tools, materials, or debris from falling off and injuring workers below.

Safety regulations typically require them alongside guardrails: The inspector cited them for missing toeboards on the scaffolding.

Also called toe boards or kickboards.
